Omolade had allegedly posted a number on the website for those who were interested in a “humble” housemaid to apply ─ an advertisement to which Onajite responded.

Following the application, the advertiser was said to have taken Juliet to Onajite’s office after which she hired her.

On Monday, December 8, 2014, Onajite told The Punch at the Unity Estate, Ojodu, where her aunt lives the shocking story of how the came home to discover that the maid together with their two kids were nowhere to be found.

Onajite said, “After we came back from the church, the children looked tired and I told Juliet to take Michael to bed while I went to do my hair. He had not slept when I came back. That day (Sunday) was my husband’s birthday and we decided to have a couple’s outing. We told her to take the children to bed immediately because they were very tired.

“We got back home at 9pm. It was Abigail, the nurse, that opened the door for us. When we entered, everywhere was quiet and that was when my husband became suspicious because usually, our children would have run from upstairs to say welcome.

“She probably deceived the kids that she was taking them to their mum. Her telephone line and that of Omolade have been switched off since yesterday (Sunday). We lodged complaints at the Isheri Police Station and the Department of State Service. The police said it was beyond their capacity, but the DSS promised to track the housemaid down.”

The father of the missing children, Elvis,who is a businessman, said, “We just hope nothing is going to happen to them. We do not have any specific suspicion as to where she took them to.”

Also speaking was Onajite’s aunt, Mrs. Tina Obajuwana, who expressed shock by the actions of the maid despite her innocent disposition.

“When she was introduced to me on Saturday, I thought she would be a good woman. She looked gentle and hardly could anyone think she is evil,” she said.

Confirming the incident, the state Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, said, “There are efforts to rescue the children and apprehend the fleeing maid. Members of the public are encouraged to give information that will lead to the rescue of the kids and reunite them with their parents.”
